Expectations of a dream [Persian] [Large Print]

By Mahdi Ganjavi

A Collection of Minimalist Experimental Stories by Mahdi Ganjavi.

Mahdi Ganjavi is a writer, editor and distinguished historian specializing in education, literature, print, and translation within the Middle East. He has written the entry on "Bijan Elahi", Persian modernist poet, for the Encyclopaedia Iranica, and his articles have been published in journals such as Iranian Studies and the Review of Middle East Studies. Over the last decade, he has undertaken the editing and publication of seven lesser-known Persian novels dating from the 1920s to the 1940s. These novels provide valuable insights into the origins of historical and utopian fiction, science fiction, and detective fiction within the Persian literary tradition. Recently, Ganjavi has successfully completed the first critical edition of "Henriyah Translation" (tarjumah hinrīyah), which represents the earliest Persian translation of "One Thousand and One Nights" (Maniahonar, 2022).

Ganjavi's first short story collection, The Pedagogy of Paranoia, was published in 2012 by Roozbahani Press. His second work of fiction, Expectations of A Dream, a collection of 79 flash fiction stories, was published in 2021 by Asemana Books (Toronto).
